Pours copper with a full off-white head that endures well. Moderately carbonated. Has a mild malty aroma. The palate was slightly thin which made it a good selection with a heavy meal. The taste was malty with a bit of a smoky, roasted nuttiness in the finish. Overall, it was a very quaffable and enjoyable ale.good

Almost vinous, sherry-like aroma with caramel and brown sugar. Crystal clear brown, wht a lasting white top that eventually becomes wisps. Very pleasant nutty, malty flavour, accentuated possibly by some smoke. Almost molassessy sweetness and no detectable hops. Quite nutty indeed! Medium to light body with moderate carbonation and a nutty, sugary, sweet finish.

bottle. an old favorite beer. Not much of a head. Well balanced with nice slightly burnt malt flavor with a mild hop finish.

Solid orange body with solid half-inch head that smooths somewhat evenly in a Samuel Smith pint glass... malts and hops act in accordance; smooth and pleasant;... medium-bodied and effervescent; mellow and drinkable (by the lees!)...bitter hops at the teeth early.... biting with a hint of nuttiness and a slight smokiness... heavy... a solid, strong representation of what I’d expect from a Scottish bitter served in a pub... has a friendly feel throughout.

Pours deep golden colour with a reddish tint and with a long-lasting head. Bitter, malty taste with some sweetness, a hint of roastiness and grassy hoppy aromas. Quite smooth and light mouthfeel. Long, dry aftertaste with certain bitter elements.

On tap at Mahars. Good solid session beer. Flavor was sweet and a bit biting like a scotch ale, but not nearly as strong.
